Frankenstein

I just picked up the Legacy Collection. Really cool set. So I want to know...what's everyone's favorite Boris Karloff Frankenstein?

The choices:

-Frankenstein

-Bride of Frankenstein

-Son of Frankenstein

-Ghost of Frankenstein

-House of Frankenstein

Well, keep in mind that I am not a huge fan of the Frankenstein movies, but I think Bride of Frankenstein is by far the best. It is a very well made film.

Going by your list, I have to say Bride of Frankenstein, However, my personal choice is Frankenstein meets the Wolfman.

I know that Bela Lugosi played the Monster and he was the least [of my] favorites of the big four (Karloff, Lugosi, Chaney Jr., and Strange), but I always had a soft spot for the Wolfman - and he has been my favorite Universal Horror Monster since I first saw the Wolfman about 30 years ago. I liked the story line and the big fight at the end just left a lasting impression on me.


Also...what exactly is on the legacy collection in regards to "extras"??

The original Frankenstein. So many wonderful characters without going as far over the top as they did in Bride.

Extras:

-Behind the scenes of how the original monsters inspired Stephen Sommers' Van Helsing

-The Frankenstein Files: How Hollywood Made a Monster documentary

-She's Alive!: Creating the Bride of Frankenstein documentary

-Commentary by film historians on Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein

-All of the films' original trailers, plus 1931, '38 and '51 Frankenstein reissue trailers

-Boo!: Short film

-Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein poster and photo galleries

-Newly remastered audio tracks for all 5 films


It's a hella good buy if you have 20 bucks to burn.
